Alex L. Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 If you need any info on these cars, let me know. I spend too much of my time working on and reading about these cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aesthetic_Influx Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 Do it. Despite a MK3 being my first car, I knew very little about cars mechanically at the time until I bought the Nissan. So I can't really comment about the pros/cons other than loving the car. Yep - totally useless post. :thumbup: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImUrOBGYN Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 The biggest issue is the head's being under torqued from the factory. However, as with any old turbo car, if you plan on making power with it, it would need a rebuild anyway. It's not a weakness with the head, etc, only that they were undertorqued to begin with or idiots are racing around in a 20yr old turbo car without proper maintenance. Saying that, he says it's already been rebuilt. With what? I'm not sure. I have many websites and forum links if you'd like. JUst let me know. Or pm me and fire some questions off me. If you live around the Deleware area and wanna stop by one day, that's fine, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex L. Posted May 1, 2009 Report Share Posted May 1, 2009 You know shit. Shouldn't you be working or something, rather than bothering me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rally Pat Posted May 1, 2009 Report Share Posted May 1, 2009 Short of the head gasket problem from the factory, they are awesome cars. You will have no problems if the head gasket is already taken care of. Occasionally you hear about the seals going on the turbo, but they aren't that hard to rebuild.
